Ice - Freeze It

[PotatoJedi]

Name: Freeze It


Casting Time: 1 Minute
Range: Touch
Duration: 8 Hours
MP Cost: 2


You touch an object no larger than a basketball and freeze it. Regular heat cannot thaw it, but magic can. If the object is a container, it freezes the container and everything in it. Recasting this spell on the same object before the duration is over thaws it. If the object is being worn/held by another person, make an ESS vs ESS roll. It slowly thaws over the course of a minute at the end of the duration. Does not work on magical items or living creatures.

Posh fucks having a mage on hand to be a freezer

Freeze a grenade and stop it from exploding. Freeze some water – eight hour long icepack that doesn't melt. Freeze a container of food so it doesn't spoil. Blah blah blah. Not really meant to be a super useful spell except in certain situations, but it's low powered so it may be the first spell in the tree.

I'm wondering if we should let people freeze it between 0°C and 5°C. Then we can have ice cream! That doesn't melt when you eat it so you'll have a cold stomach for eight hours. Well, unless you thaw it beforehand.

Freezing a grenade won't stop it necessarily from exploding. Might even cause (depending on the grenade) to explode RFN.

Problem with freezing spells is that to be useful, you'd need a tree of them.

Yeah if I come up with any more Ice spells, I'll post them up. This was just one idea that popped into my head.
